Abstract: Print data suitable for printing or displaying a print image are generated by assigning print colors
after color reduction using a process that removes color reduction noise and produces clear
contours in the print image. A source data capturing unit (11) obtains source data containing
image data and/or text data in plural colors. A data conversion unit (15) converts color data for
each pixel in the source data to luminance data for each pixel. A color assignment unit (13)
assigns a printable color to each pixel according to the luminance level of the converted
luminance data. Source data is thus converted to luminance data, and usable colors are then
assigned according to the brightness values of the image represented by the converted
luminance levels.

Abstract: A device for sensing media thickness using capacitance measurements
includes first and second supports that are moveable relative to each other and a
variable capacitance capacitor comprising first and second electrodes that have a
variable gap disposed between the electrodes and a dielectric medium disposed in
the variable gap. The dielectric medium can be a gas or a vacuum. The first and
second electrodes are disposed on a portion of the first and second supports
respectively and are disposed opposite each other in substantially facing relation.
The electrodes are spaced apart by a first distance. When a media whose
thickness is to be measured and the supports are urged into contact with one
another, the electrodes are displaced to a second distance. The media is not
disposed in the variable gap and is not in contact with the electrodes so that the
capacitance of the variable capacitor when the electrodes are in the second position
is determined by the distance between the electrodes in the second position and the
dielectric constant of the dielectric medium in the variable gap so that the thickness
of the media is derived, irrespective of the dielectric properties of the media, by
electronically measuring the capacitance between the electrodes.

Abstract: An example embodiment of a method and apparatus for reducing back-to-back voltage glitch on a high speed bus is described. A pre-driver circuit receives an input voltage signal whose voltage level swings from a logically low voltage level to a logically high voltage level where the logically low voltage level approximately equals VSS and the logically high voltage level approximately equals VCC. The pre-driver circuit reduces the magnitude of the voltage swing to create a signal that when delivered to a driver transistor ensures that the driver transistor will operate in its saturation region even when the voltage on the high speed bus is at its minimum specified voltage. When the driver transistor operates in its saturation region it can sink a constant current and provide a high output impedance.

Abstract: Microfluidic embryo scaled channels (14) for handling and positioning embryos provide the opportunity to evaluate and treat embryos in improved manners. Fluid flow is used to move and position embryos within microfluidic channels and channel geometrics may be used to place embryos at specific locations. Surface properties and compliance (deformation) properties of embryos are evaluated as a predictor of viability. The microfluidic channels provide the opportunity for fine controls of pressure to conduct various evalutions at forces slightly below which damage to embryos is known to occur. Measurement of the distance and/or which embryos roll in a same pressure gradient microfluidic channel provides information, with healthy embryos traveling slower or a shorter distance as they demonstrate more stiction to channel walls.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de colorer par solution une matière polymère pendant la polymérisation de façon à former une nuance de couleur de base, puis de colorer extérieurement cette matière polymère soit par coloration des fils, soit par colorations de pièce de façon à produire une nuance de couleur finale. La nuance de base formée peut ensuite être transformée en une nuance finale recherchée choisie parmi une grande variété de nuances finales. Une protection contre les ultraviolets est également fournie dans l'étape de coloration par solution, par l'introduction d'un agent stabilisateur d'ultraviolet dans le mélange polymère. En fournissant un fil ou un substrat possédant une couleur de base colorée par solution, qu'on peut transformer en une grande variété de différentes nuances de couleur finales, il est probable qu'on écoule mieux les stocks et qu'on évite les mises au rebut. On gagne de l'espace de stockage et ce processus est beaucoup plus efficace. On réduit les coûts de manutention avec un stock réduit, on a besoin d'un stock plus réduit pour assurer les sorties de matières et les risques d'obsolescence du stock restant sont plus faibles. De plus, les qualités de résistance à la lumière du produit final sont améliorées, et la nuance finale peut être appliquée à un stade tardif du processus de formation de la toile, ce qui permet de répondre rapidement aux commandes de couleur des consommateurs.
